Resplendence one day i'll be stronger than my own doubt Resplendence was starting to get worried. She had noticed too many people being gone for too long. It wasn't right. It shouldn't be happening. Aye. She wanted to leave, to search for them. But… she couldn't do it. She couldn't leave in case someone who was still here required her assistance. So, instead, she patrolled the borders. Hours at a time. Days on end. She refused to stop if she thought something was wrong. She didn't care that Valiance was getting onto her. She didn't care that Valiance was pleading with her to stop. She couldn't stop because her mind was running. Her mind was spinning, saying that she had to hold the family together. It was Valiance who heard Kaj - having shot off to try and find someone to make Resplendence stop the patrols. "Kaj! Kaj is back!" Valiance shouts through the bond, loud enough to make Resplendence jump - startling off to the side and stumbling to the ground. She snorts, exhaustion kicking in, and she forces herself to get back to her feet. She shakes her head to try and keep her mind awake and alert before taking off in the direction that Valiance was. Valiance swooped down, landing upon the ground just in front of Kaj - eyes narrowing in concern. He spread out his wings and gave a few clicks, afraid to touch the stag in case he took him off balance and caused him to crumple on top of the awkwardly positioned limb. "Injured. Looks bad." Valiance warned Resplendence just as she reached the edge of the tree-line. Her eyes shot open wide, panic coursing through her veins as her sleep-deprived mind tried to form words. Her jaw was slack as she inched forward - afraid to touch him for fear that it would cause him immense pain. His skin had boils and his leg was positioned so awkwardly. Finally, words slide from her lips as the same time as tears begin to slip from her eyes. "Kaj… What happened? You look like death…" Was this a nightmare? Please let it be a nightmare… |
